[DML] Re: DeLorean ownership; an ego trip?

["wayofcain" <wayofcain@xxxxxxxxx>]

I just have a few really small comments. 

First off, I like the attention, it's fun. Most people don't realize 
you have heard the "where's the flux" question at every public place 
you have stopped. That's cool, though they get to think they are 
witty and I get to know someone has been made happy. 

I have had one or two anti-DMC remarks, but hey, if I cared what they 
thought, I would have asked them to tell me what I should drive 
before I bought the car.

And secondly, as far as getting pushed goes, I have been pushed twice 
by people who just didn't see the car. I have learned to use the 
bikers mantra of "always assume no one is paying attention to you".

The Low profile of the DMC and the height of modern cars and 
ESPECIALLY trucks and SUVs means they can look right over you when 
changing lanes. I know this to be the case since I have seen it 
happen. I don't harbor resentment, it was a mistake. 

I have also noticed that it looks in my rearview like everyone is 
tailgating. I think it just might be because the car is low and small 
and the rear is so close to me.

I would imagine that there are very few people who would really want 
to react so violently, and be willing to step outside of the 
boundaries of what society deems to be acceptable behavior, just to 
harm you or your car.
